The third edition of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
presents a thorough updating and enhancement of the classic text
that introduced the rapidly expanding field of developmental
cognitive neuroscience.

Includes the addition of two new chapters that provide further
introductory material on new methodologies and the application of
genetic methods in cognitive development

Includes several key discussion points at the end of each
chapter

Features a greater focus on mid-childhood and adolescence, to
complement the previous edition?s emphasis on early childhood

Brings the science closer to real-world applications via a
greater focus on fieldwork

Includes a greater emphasis on structural and functional brain
imaging

Mark H. Johnson is Professor of Psychology, MRC Scientific
Team Leader, and Director of the Centre for Brain and Cognitive
Development at Birkbeck College, University of London. He is an
editor of the Wiley-Blackwell journal Developmental Science,
and is considered to be among the worldâ??s leading scholars
in human brain development.

Michelle de Haan is Reader in Developmental Cognitive
Neuroscience in the Institute of Child Health at University College
London, and Honorary Principal Neuropsychologist for Great Ormond
Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust. Her research applies
neuroimaging and neuropsychological methods to understand typical
and atypical cognitive and social development.

‘Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience has become the
best advanced undergraduate textbook that lays out the agenda and
approach to this rapidly expanding field. In this updated third
edition, I particularly like the emphasis on reconciling
brain-based research with pure behavioural approaches and why
students must appreciate the contribution of neuroscience to
building better models of cognitive development.’
— Professor Bruce Hood, University of Bristol, UK

‘The way in which genes and environment shape brain
networks underlying human behavior is now among the most active
issues in science. This new edition of Developmental Cognitive
Neuroscience provides a comprehensive approach to theory, data
and application to this issue and others within the perspectives of
Cognitive and Social Neuroscience.’
—Michael I. Posner, Professor Emeritus, University of
Oregon, US

‘This book, which launched the field of developmental
cognitive neuroscience 13 years ago, shows no sign of aging.
This up-to-date and newly revised volume eloquently captures the
key domains of the discipline and will prove essential reading to
both students and established scientists alike. Well-written
and well-researched, this revised edition will serve as both a
resource and inspiration for anyone interested in the intersection
of brain and cognitive development.’
—Professor Charles A. Nelson III, Harvard University
Medical School and Children’s Hospital Boston, US
